From here and there........
(a) Shaktiman's plight.
A police steed, Shaktiman, was beaten badly - that a hind leg of his had to be amputated - by a
boor, Ganesh Joshi, a BJP MLA of Uttarakhand while participating in a protest march against
the chief minister of the state. Despite the surgery, Shaktiman is not out of danger.
I think what everyone must know is that anyone who ill treats animals is a bad man. So, Ganesh
Joshi needs to be brought to book and no mercy must be shown to him. He has shown his might
on a poor, helpless animal and therefore, qualifies for the tag, 'the meanest character'.
(b) Goodies galore.
I was amused by the television grabs of Bihar's MLAs carrying gifts of a microwave oven, a
travelling suitcase and a bag. The bonanza has been picked up by even the 'crorepati' MLAs
just proving the point that greed and want are insatiable.
What's happening to Nitish Kumar? Is he being taken over by Laloo Prasad Yadav's way of
looking at life and thumbing his nose at the common man of which he was a part till recently,
before his meteoric rise?
(c) Cine actors to the fore.
In Kerala, both the UDF and the LDF have chosen cine actors as candidates for the coming
elections. What amazes me is that not many of them have acquitted themselves well in their
chosen field. The result would be that they would allow themselves to be willingly manipulated
by the political party to whom they'd be permanently indebted!
The ultimate losers will be the people of Kerala who'll have sub standard lawmakers in the
Assembly! But nobody seems to care!!
Come to power at any cost seems to be the byline.
Tailpiece.
Another day of limbering up to go to Kottarakkara to attend Lekha's father's fifth day ceremony -
'Sanchayanam'.
